One bit of advice I would give to someone in their internship process is to not be afraid to go outside your comfort zone.

It’s noisy, crowded and over saturated with content.

I've had the opportunity to write hundreds of social posts for different brand voices, as well as some long form work like blogs that require a bit more time and attention to detail.

My portfolio reflects so much growth and potential, ready to be seen by designers in the industry.

Non-profits have always interested me because of their meaning and willingness to help.

It was the mixture of business and creativity that I yearned for.This summer I was honored with the opportunity…

I am good at following directions. It is a strong suit of mine. Coming from a past job experience where endless direction and input was suffocatingly placed on my shoulders, to an internship with quite a bit of creative freedom, I never knew how much I would learn that self-accountability and confrontation are keys to success.

Hey Temple community! My name is Allison Silibovsky and I am a senior here at Temple studying Advertising and Media Studies and Production.
